Previous Lung Diseases and Lung Cancer Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: BackgroundIn order to review the epidemiologic evidence concerning previous lung diseases as risk factors for lung cancer, a meta-analysis and systematic review was conducted.MethodsRelevant studies were identified through MEDLINE searches. Using random effects models, summary effects of specific previous conditions were evaluated separately and combined. Stratified analyses were conducted based on smoking status, gender, control sources and continent.ResultsA previous history of COPD, chronic bronchitis or em… Show more

“…COPD was the only significant covariate in our final multivariable model. The association between COPD and lung cancer we found in our study was consistent with the result from two earlier meta-analyses (17,39). In contrast, emphysema, bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, and tuberculosis were not significantly associated with lung cancer in our final multivariate model.…”

“…Covariates such as prior history of respiratory diseases and prior diagnosis of malignant diseases have been reported as risk factors for lung cancer (16,17). Clinical covariates in the previous case-control model were based on unvalidated self-reported questionnaire responses (18).…”

“…Several studies have established a relationship between COPD and lung cancer. The prevalence of COPD in newly-diagnosed lung cancer patients was estimated at about 50% (3) and COPD is considered an independent risk factor of lung cancer, irrespective of smoking history (4,5).…”

“…Once COPD is diagnosed, risk of developing lung cancer increases two-to threefold (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12), even among never smokers (13). Lung cancer occurrence is also linked differentially to specific COPD phenotypes (i.e., emphysema and chronic bronchitis) (9,(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”

“…Lung cancer occurrence is also linked differentially to specific COPD phenotypes (i.e., emphysema and chronic bronchitis) (9,(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). In a metaanalysis, lung cancer was associated with a previous history of COPD (odds ratio [OR], 2.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.7-3.0), chronic bronchitis (OR, 1.5; 95% CI, 1.3-1.8), and emphysema (OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.7-2.4) (12). In a large, population-based case-control study in women in Detroit, COPD was associated with a significantly increased risk of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (OR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.15-2.41; in whites, OR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.21-2.81) (19).…”
